Ah, thanks for jogging my memory


On a quick read, I didn’t see the struck motorcycles listed. Last I heard, a few years ago, was that this mainly affected motorcycles with two rear lights that are spaced apart and fairly low to the ground. I believe this is mostly true for Harleys.
The theory I recall was that this rear light configuration made the Tesla assume it was looking (remember, only cameras without depth data) at a car that was further down the road - and acceleration was safe as a result. It miscategorised the motorcycle so badly that it misjudged it’s position entirely.


Thanks for the link! Too bad they’re stupid expensive in comparison to my old CCAs ;(
I’m saddened by the combination of “he hasn’t understood he did something wrong” and “suspended sentence”. To me, the latter implies that the convicted already has paid their debt to society for their actions, while the former says otherwise
